i want to make just a few points. first, the terrorist attacks in benghazi that claimed the lives of four brave americans, chris stevens, shawn smith, tyrone woods and doherty, are part of a broader strategic challenge to the united states and our partners in north africa. i think it is important we understand the context for this challenge as we work together to protect our people and honor our fallen colleagues. any clear eyed examination of this matter must begin with this sobering fact. since 1988 there have been 19 accountability review boards, investigating attacks on american diplomats and their facilities. since 1977, 65 american diplomatic personnel have been killed by terrorists. in addition to those who have been killed, we know what happened in tehran, with hostages being taken in 1979, our embassy and marine barracks bombed in beirut in 1983, khobar towers in saudi arabia in 1996, our embassies in east africa in 1998, consulate staff murdered in jeddah, saudi arabia in 2004, the coast attack in afghanista
